What does the Bible say about types of Christ?

Answered in 2 sources

The Bible teaches that various figures from the Old Testament, such as Noah's ark and the paschal lamb, serve as types or foreshadows of Christ.

The types of Christ are primarily seen as figures in the Old Testament that point towards the reality of Jesus Christ as the Messiah. Notable examples include Noah's ark, which symbolizes salvation and safety, and the paschal lamb, which represents Christ's sacrificial death. Colossians 2:17 indicates that these types are shadows of the things to come, pointing believers to the substance that is found in Christ. These types affirm the centrality of Christ in salvation history and highlight the continuity of God's redemptive plan throughout Scriptures.
